Beach Hotels in Kissimmee

Usually we walk away from a property with a pretty decisive yay or nay feeling. We either loved it, or it wasn’t for us. We’re languishing this time because this one had high points and some that missed the mark for us. If anyone asked us if we’d recommend it, we think our answer would be to read some reviews, do your own research, consider your own preferences and make the choice you think is right for you. We made a 2 night reservation at 4 am on the day of check in for a queen, pool view room, as our preference (king) was sold out. No big deal. It was the pool view and balcony we were really after anyway. The website said we would receive an email confirmation, which never arrived. (Yep, checked the spam and found we missed many unique and one of a kind money making opportunities, but nothing from Margaritaville). When I called the reservation number to inquire, I found they opened at 8 am. Odd there was no 24 hour reservation help, but okay. Screen shot with confirmation number is what it is. When I called at 8 am, our reservation was verified (yay!). There was no offer to email the reservation but an offer was made to transfer us to the cabana rental staff so we could secure a cabana for the next day. Yes- Sign us up! No one answered and we rang back to the desk who apologized and gave us the number to call. Gave it some time and called at about 8:30. This time we were able to leave a voice mail. We also sent an email to the email address left on the voice mail. We like options. Finally, midmorning, we called and someone answered. It was no problem to get a cabana. We were asked what type of location we preferred and selected the landlocked option, which was indeed the best choice for us. One should note that “On The Water” and “Stars on the Water” are literally 100% poolside. Like hang-on-the-edge-of-the-pool-and-almost-have-an-arm-in-your-cabana on the water. If privacy is your goal, these might not be for you. If you want to step right into the pool, this is your spot. After we made the reservation, we received an email invitation to enroll in the Perks program, and were asked to select 2 perks. We selected 2 free drinks and some type of welcome snacky box. While it could have been our error, we did see in another review where these things were presented to the guest upon check in. In our case, it was never acknowledged or obtained. We arrived for check in. When we pulled into the parking lot, we received a push notification that we could check in using the app (yay! We love this option), which we had downloaded before we left home. Still, there was no way to link our reservation or anything (oh no, we don’t like this!). The app was basically static information with no functions that we were able to unlock for the entire duration of our stay. The lobby was gorgeous and smelled really nice like...something…we are not sure what, but we liked it. We were not greeted with a complimentary drink as advertised. Check in was smooth for the

Rizzo at the tiki bar he did a great great job can't wait to come back he is awesome very helpful , he helped us with ice, towels and great company ,makes great rum runner I wish the hotel has more beer choices

The lady who helped us at the service desk was rude and very unhelpful. We had drove all the way from Dallas to Orlando with a uhaul we booked 2 nights but couldn't make the first one as we were still on route. She didn't want to give us our room and said that the reservation was canceled because we no showed for our booking. Long story short we had to get the manager who was nice enough to help us and gave us our room.

For the price I have absolutely no complaints. Got better than expected. The front desk was extremely helpful and maid service was there if I needed. Except for the time it takes to get my deposit back. A different place I stayed recently I had my deposit back in an hour after checkout.

Great and quiet, being next to Walmart made it really convenient

The rooms were very nice. An upgrade to what is pictured in my opinion. The front desk was amazing. Very kind and easy to deal with. The ease of being able to text when I needed any items or had any issues arrise was great. We had some noisy neighbors and security was sent right away. Food and prices were great. We ran into one rude waitress at the restaurant.. some people are just miserable. I left it at that. Enjoy your tip or lack there of lol. The one downfall in my opinion, were some of the guests. Rude and inconsiderate, but it was busy season. Would definitely look for a resort that does not do timeshare presentations in the future.

I've been checking in with them almost every week, everytime I get an off coz my daughter loves their pool and I love the fact that they have hot swimming pool which is good for me and my daughter! If they have a membership, I'll be their number one member!

Great for children, the hotel is clean, the pool is open all year round, and it is a heated pool! There are many breakfasts. They are all Western style. Buy a Disney quilt drink and drink it. If you want to play Disney, you must stay in a Disney hotel.

There were NO microwaves in ANY rooms, and coffee maker only took little pouches the size of a tea bag. Refrigerator froze veggies, and no free breakfast. Forcing us to go to Starbucks, Pizza Hut or expensive Breakfast in the lobby if you didn't want to leave the hotel.

I booked a room for 1 night because I never stayed here before, so I don't book more than 1 night when I don't know what they property is like. I knew there was some kind of corruption going on with this place because they have a huge sign that promotes the rates start at $29.95, I know there are no rates this low at this location because I have checked online and with the tool free number, the do not include the resort fee, which is more than the price that they are advertising. This is a scam to start with but I wanted to check it out anyway. I arrived to check in and there was the usual sign on the door that they want people to wear a diaper on their face. I do not wear these things because I am disabled, I have stayed in dozens of hotels in the area and nobody (except the Motel 6) had a problem. In fact asking people to use a medical device in order to use their services is not legal in the USA, a person who asks someone to use a medical device must be qualified to do this (e.g. M.D. etc.) and they must do an individual assessment, and finally even if these are done the medical device can be rejected and they still must provide everyone with equal service. I also have a disability and can not use these things. When I walked in the office immediately the clerk said I needed to wear a diaper on my face, I told her to just your job and check me in, then she immediately told me that she is going to cancel my reservation and that she was calling the police to trespass me, I know the police would not come because this happened to me before but I decided to avoid this hotel and leave because at this point a business that doesn't follow the laws of the country and denies my rights is not a place where I will give my hard earned money to. Avoid this hotel at all cost they are corrupt, they have fraudulent advertising practices and they deny people their rights.
